I would love for 14 to recount his adventures to Donna tho

14: "Oh right! You know the archaeologist we met in that library who knew me but I didn't know her?"

Donna: "The pretty one you were bickering with?"

14: "Yeah! You are never going to believe who she is, you ready for this?"

Donna: "Well, go on! Who is she?"

14: "My wife."

Donna: *Extremely loud gasping, nearly spills her wine* "NO"

14: "Yes!"

Donna: "NO!"

14: "Yes!"

The Pevensies are the most perfect siblings representation in media. They argue with each other, they throw disgust when they have to be around each other, they bicker like actually siblings. Peter's little "I had it sorted" is such a sibling thing cause he knows he was saved but he'd rather die than admit it was his sibling who did it. And then when things actually get tough, they don't suddenly start being chummy, they still act like siblings, they still bicker and shove each other, but now they're doing it for a common goal, they will not falter together, but they're going to arguing with each other the whole battle. Too many movies show siblings miraculously changing their attitudes in the final battle as if they'd never fought ever, but not Narnia. They are siblings until the very end of the movie.

saw a post on bluesky about reimagining The Iliad as a mecha war and that idea goes unbelievably hard. achilles in his legally distinct gundam cutting through dozens of enemy suits. aggamemnon in his gold-plated mech. paris using a long range sniper rifle to exploit a design flaw in achilles' armor. the gods are all various megacorps who have a stake in the war bc it'll impact their profits.

Earlier today I thought for a moment about the project hail mary movie and was immediately struck by what I can only describe as a montage (with Sign of the Times backing it) of the two times I went to see it (in two different cities with two different groups).

This made me realize that I don't actually hate the movie and think it can't measure up to the book, I just can't stand tumblr fandom for a popular work.

#I'm not tagging this as project hail mary and I think I might need to block that tag.#It's that post about how fandom is like going to a chess club where everyone claims that chess is about slapping each other with fish.#The frustrating part is that there *is* really amazing stuff in the phm fandom that keeps me coming back to find more.#but there isn't actually enough of it to justify slowly coming to hate such a good story by tumblr being my main association with it.

Today's rant about the exhaust port on the Death Star was inspired by a post about how Darth Vader appears to have known about it, based on some comics and some behavior in the movie. It was an interesting post which I only didn't reblog because some additions presupposed that this was the writers being stupid.

I actually think that still works with the presupposition that the exhaust port makes sense. Darth Vader, the same guy who destroyed a droid control ship in a vaguely similar way on accident and then spent several years during the Clone Wars probably pulling off similar stunts on purpose, has the experience to look for that kind of weakness. If he had access to the Death Star plans at any point, he probably found that weakness and filed it away for future use. He didn't like the Death Star, Tarkin kept rubbing it in his face that it was going to replace him and there were probably all sorts of internal politics about it.

So my thought is he saw the weakness and, when he saw the Rebellion attacking, hopped into a fighter to go out and join the fight with the intention of "accidentally" popping a couple of missiles down there himself. If he took out the last fighter and made the shot quick enough, the sensors likely wouldn't even have been able to be sure the missiles came from him and not that incredibly lucky last rebel pilot. And even if they could, who were they gonna tell in the 60 seconds or so they had left?

Rebels crushed, Death Star removed, all in one fell swoop.

Now this does have the amusing side effect of making his obsessive hunt for the pilot who destroyed the Death Star afterwards less about serving the Empire or whatever and more about taking down that upstart killstealer
